Do you feel the mental & physical health effects of these experiences taking over your life? Join us for Part 1 of the May MENTAL HEALTH SERIES where I talk with licensed trauma therapist Gabrielle Loomis-Annett about how to determine if your job is toxic, coping strategies when you're in it, and how to heal from it after you've left.
